4 Section C. Short Answer Questions (30 mars) Directions: Answer the following questions using full calculations and complete sentences. 21. A 3.0-g box is pushed up a 16-m-long ramp with a force of 40 N. If the top of the ramp is 10 m above the ground, what is the efficiency of the ramp? a 22. A boo with a mass of 1.32 g is dropped from a height of 3.2 m. How fast will the boo be travelling when it is 1.0 m above the floor? a

5 23. Compare the amount of energy consumed by sleeping (P = 83 W) for 8 h with the amount of energy consumed sitting studying (P = 210 W) for 2 h. a 24. The specific heat capacity of plastic is 167. A 132-g plastic mug at 21.2 C is filled g K with 213 g of water ( c 4190 ) at 97.8 C. Assuming that no thermal energy is lost, g K determine the final temperature of the mug and water. a

6 25. On the same set of axes, draw heating curves for raising the temperature of butter in an oven, on the counter, and in a microwave oven. c 26. Complete the paragraph below to describe the energy transfers that are occurring at each stage of the heating curve. (Art/ArtPlus Limited) The water is being heated at a constant rate, so the energy of the water is increasing at all times. As the ice is heated, the energy of the particles increases, and they vibrate faster. The temperature of the water increases. At the melting point, the bonds between the particles begin to brea, and the energy increases. Some of the water is solid and some is liquid, and the particles exchange energy. The average energy remains constant, so there is no increase in temperature. Once all the bonds have broen, the energy can t increase any more. The heating now increases the energy of the particles, and the temperature of the water starts to rise again.

7 27. Explain how a fossil-fuel power plant can be made more efficient. a 28. Compare and contrast nuclear fission and nuclear fusion. Give an example of each. 29. Lead-212 decays by two β-decays and then an α-decay. State the intermediate isotopes and the final isotope in the decay series. 30. Describe one medical use of a nuclear reaction, explaining the benefits of this application and any dangers. a
